Gu Lingling felt she had never seen such a shameless woman.
What does it mean by no substantial harm?
If she hadn't reacted quickly today, if Yang Yunhai hadn't been there, Zhao Si'en would have probably been ruined by Guo Damao.
And this woman still has the nerve to plead here.
She's clever too, knowing to beg Zhao Si'en, the victim.
"Wei Yan Yan," Zhao Si'en nodded to Gu Lingling to indicate she was fine, then rose and looked coldly at Wei Yan Yan on the ground, "Do you still think you're innocent?"
"Are you thinking why despite our Zhao family going under, I can still live well, while you can only depend on lying beneath this man?" Zhao Si'en pointed at Guo Damao and asked.
"You're not satisfied, you're jealous."
"So you want me to experience the same fate as you, don't you?"
Wei Yan Yan was stunned there.
Didn't Zhao Si'en not recognize her? She didn't expect Zhao Si'en was pretending all along, feigning ignorance.
Moreover, these thoughts in her heart only erupted after rolling around with Guo Damao; how did Zhao Si'en know?
"Heaven watches while man acts." Zhao Si'en said calmly, "Begging for mercy? If begging were useful..."
She would have knelt before those people long ago asking them to spare the Zhao family.
The Zhao family was so innocent, yet faced such calamities.
Besides, was Wei Yan Yan innocent?
"People must be accountable for their actions." Zhao Si'en said, "When you thought of destroying me, you should have anticipated such an outcome."
"And, I'm not afraid to tell you." Zhao Si'en stared unwaveringly at Wei Yan Yan, "Even if Sister Lingling hadn't come today, I wouldn't have let him succeed."
"At worst, it would be death."
"Rather be a finely broken jade than a whole tile. Even if he succeeded, I wouldn't be as cowardly as you. Even if it cost me my life, I would expose him and make him face punishment."
Moreover, Wei Yan Yan wasn't forced; she wanted benefits from Guo Damao.
"This is how I differ from you." Zhao Si'en stood upright.
The small figure at this moment seemed grand.
"Well said." Gu Tongzhou praised.
This was the bravery a girl should possess.
Wei Yan Yan was utterly dumbfounded, never thought Zhao Si'en would say such things.
But she knew what she said was true.
Otherwise, today's matter wouldn't have blown up .
It would have been suppressed at the village since Zhao Si'en wasn't harmed. If she didn't insist, the village officials would have buried the matter for their own political gains.
"Director, I confess," Wei Yan Yan suddenly remembered something and said hastily, "There's someone else behind this; it was Gu Juan who told me to use Zhao Si'en's trust in Gu Lingling to trick her to the village entrance." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ NoveI-Fire.ɴet
"If it wasn't for her idea, Zhao Si'en wouldn't have trusted this child so much."
And if she didn't go to the village entrance, today's incident wouldn't have happened.
So, all this is Gu Juan's fault.
Wei Yan Yan clutched at the final straw and placed all the blame on Gu Juan.
Gu Juan's family was here, and she was sisters with Gu Lingling, with a mother Wang Meili who could move things around.
But she was different, just a helpless educated youth.
"Gu Juan, right? Bring her here as well." Wang Jianshan said.
Today's episode could be described as full of twists and turns, wave after wave, unexpectedly involving so many people.
Wei Yan Yan was taken aback.
